Polestar Performance gives your Volvo more performance

You no longer need to take risks with ‘chip tuning’ to achieve an enhanced driving experience. On an S60 T6 AWD and XC60 T6 AWD expect to see 0-60mph acceleration times drop by an impressive 0.3 seconds! By enhancing boost pressure, and reworking computer mapping, Polestar software increases power output by up to 30hp, and torque by up to 59lbs-ft! It optimizes the power output towards the engine mid-range which is right where you need it the most.

Fuel consumption and the environment

A Volvo upgraded with Polestar Performance Software has the same certified fuel consumption as the standard version.
